Many independent authors readily admit that marketing can be the most difficult aspect of self-publishing. True, much time and effort are required to write and publish a book, but authors that have a love of writing often lack the experience or motivation needed to promote their book successfully. However, there are some promotional opportunities available that require very little effort or know-how. One option offered by Kindle Direct Publishing is to enroll your book in KDP Select, which enables you to take advantage of Kindle Unlimited, Kindle Countdown Deals and KDP Free Days. In order to get the most out of these promotional opportunities, you can submit your book to various book promotion companies that will promote your book to their subscribers. The following lists may help you find the audience that your book deserves.
List of websites that offer marketing opportunities for ebooks, including Kindle Countdown Deals, KDP Free Days, and Kindle Unlimited.
FEATURED PROMOTIONS
ADDITIONAL OPTIONS
In addition to the promotion sites on our list, there are a handful of services that charge a fee to offer your book directly to their readers for reviews. These include:
BookRoar.com, BookSirens.com, BookSprout.co, BookTasters.net, Edelweiss, ManyBooks.net, NetGalley.com, PageTurnerz.com, Reedsy.com/discovery, and SelfPublishingReview.com.
DOMAIN RATING
In order to help you determine which sites are best for you, we have rated each site on an A (highest) to F (lowest) scale. Our ratings do not necessarily correlate to the number of subscribers on each site and do not guarantee any specific results. Instead, they are based solely on each website’s domain authority, which is a factor that shows how active and popular the site is.
* CASE STUDY DOWNLOADS
Throughout 2025 and 2026, Indies Today promoted established science fiction, young adult, and cozy mystery novels with various sites to share our results with you. These books were priced free except when $0.99 was required (such as BargainBooksy), and we generally purchased the lower-priced promotion options on each site. When we promoted more than one title on a specific site, the downloads shown will be the most recent results.
